THE UNIVERSITY
Though this institution received its charter as a University in the year 1961, it has a much longer history as a distinguished seat of learning in engineering sciences. The
institute started its operation in 1921 as the Mughalpura Technical College, deriving its name from the famous suburb of the old city of Lahore, richly dotted with architectural
heritage of the great Mughals including the magnificent Shalimar Gardens. Its more familiar name of the pre-University era, the Maclagan Engineering College, was given
to it in 1923 when Sir Edwards Maclagan, the then Governor of the Punjab, laid the foundation stone of the building, now called the Main Block, which still retains its majesty
in spite of the wear and tear of almost a century. At that time, the institution offered courses of study in two disciplines, namely Electrical and Mechanical Engineering. The
year 1932 is a major milestone in the evolution of this institution when it was affiliated with the University of the Punjab for award of a Bachelor's degree in Engineering. At
the time of Independence, i.e., in 1947, it had well-established B.Sc. degree courses in civil, electrical and mechanical engineering, and the quality of its scholastic standards
won it a place of prestige throughout the British India.
In 1954, it started a Bachelor's degree course in Mining Engineering, the first-ever of its kind in the country. But its massive expansion and development commenced in 1961
on its transformation into a University. It set for itself a variety of goals, but the first priority was to start teaching of those disciplines, which were crucial for national
development but were not catered for by any institution in the country. Accordingly, in the sixties, Bachelor's degree courses were started in Chemical Engineering, Petroleum
& Gas Engineering, Metallurgical Engineering, Architecture, and City & Regional Planning.
Later, the University concentrated its energies and resources on developing its postgraduate programs. By 1970's it had established over a score of Master's degree courses
in diverse specializations of engineering, architecture, planning and allied disciplines. Ph.D. degree program was also instituted in a number of disciplines. The process of
consolidating and strengthening continued to be a major concern of the University, with phenomenal increase in student's enrollment in seventies. Consequently, the
University College of Engineering was established in 1975 at Sahiwal. For three years it functioned at Sahiwal and was shifted to its present campus at Taxila in 1978.
Subsequently, this college was upgraded to a university and it is currently functioning as University of Engineering and Technology, Taxila.
Establishing traditions of research in the engineering and allied disciplines has been a major goal of the University. With this end in view, the University established a
Directorate of Research, Extension and Advisory Services, now called Office of Research, Innovation and Commercialization (ORIC), which strives for the promotion and
organization of research activities.
In the recent past, there has been a substantial rise in students' enrollment and the figure has now gone up to over 13,163. Currently, 2,527 students are pursuing
postgraduate studies. The number of female students enrolling for different disciplines is ever on the increase and is 3,462 at present. The number of foreign students coming
from countries, like Iran, Jordan, Kuwait, Kenya, Nepal, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Bangladesh, Yemen, Somalia, Nigeria, Ethopia and Sri Lanka is over 479 which gives the
University Campus a cosmopolitan character.
The university has 766 teachers of which 382 have a Ph.D. degree, whereas 101 are pursuing Ph.D. abroad.
The teaching departments of the University are grouped into the following seven faculties:
• Faculty of Electrical Engineering

• Faculty of Mechanical Engineering
• Faculty of Civil Engineering
• Faculty of Architecture & Planning
• Faculty of Chemical, Metallurgical and Polymer Engineering
• Faculty of Natural Sciences, Humanities and Islamic Studies
• Faculty of Earth Sciences and Engineering
The university set up a campus at Faisalabad in 2006 and also established a campus at Kala Shah Kaku in 2007, which is known as University’s City Campus. Rachna
College of Engineering & Technology, Gujranwala is a constituent college and follows the same academic curriculum and policies as the ones followed at the main campus
in Lahore. In 2012, the university established a new campus in Narowal with an aim to produce quality technical manpower for the District of Narowal and its surroundings.
In addition to managing its own campus, the University controls the academic programs and examinations of numerous institutions, which are affiliated with it for award of
degrees.

DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

The Department of Electrical Engineering was established in 1923 as a part of the Maclagan Engineering College. The Department started a postgraduate
program in 1966 and offers four degrees:
1. Ph.D. Electrical Engineering
2. M.Sc. Electrical Engineering
3. M.Sc. Artificial Intelligence
The first Master’s degree was awarded in 1969 and the first Doctoral degree was awarded in 1979.
The student can choose amongst one of the following specializations while pursuing his master’s degree in electrical engineering:
1. Computer
2. Electronics and Communications
3. Power Systems
The master’s degree courses are aimed at bringing the students abreast with the most recent developments in their fields of specialization. For graduation,
there are two options for the students – either he needs to do a thesis in his area of specialization (one of the above three) along with at least six courses
from his major specialization area and a maximum of two courses from any of other two specialization areas or at least eight courses from his major
specialization area and a maximum of two courses from any of other two specialization areas. Faculty advisement is mandatory for all enrolled students.
Please note that the specialization opted at the time of admission is final.
It is mandatory for all Ph.D. students to pass the GRE Subject type PhD admission test administered by the Department, sixteen graduate courses, a
comprehensive exam based on these courses and publish at least one article, based on his original research, in an impact factor journal before the award
of that degree.
The Department has highly qualified and experienced faculty with most of the PhD faculty members graduates of reputed national and international
universities. Faculty members with higher qualifications are engaged in M.Sc./Ph.D. teaching and research supervision.
25
Research work being carried out at the Department has direct bearing on the needs of national industry. The Office of Research, Innovation and
Commercialization of the University, in particular, funds this research. A number of research papers are produced every year by faculty members and
graduate students, which are normally published (presented) in major national and international journals (conferences).
The Department has a well-stocked and up-to-date library for the use of faculty and students. This also houses a large number of numerous books donated
by late Dr Masood Ahmad. Department also offers consultancy services and testing facilities to local manufacturers of electrical and electronics equipment.
It also arranges frequent seminars and workshops in various areas of electrical power, electronics, communications, computer and control systems
engineering. Faculty members and prominent researchers from home and abroad deliver these seminars.
In today’s world and in the foreseeable future, artificial intelligence (AI) is and will remain an essential component of all engineering applications. Its vast
areas of application include diverse fields such as industrial robotics, e-commerce, and the defence industry. The Master of Science in AI is designed to
provide a rigorous and intensive training to students in the areas of machine learning, artificial intelligence, and robotics. The curriculum is rigorous enough
that it adequately prepares the student to excel in academia and higher education yet is practical enough that it easily qualifies the student to work in the
ever-growing AI industry.
Quaid e Azam Thermal Power (Private) Limited, a 1180 MW public sector Combined Cycle Power Plant in Bhikki Sheikhupura is offering fully funded
scholarships along with fiscal incentives subject to fulfilment of certain terms and conditions. It provides unique learning opportunities with hands on

DEPARTMENT OF MECHATRONICS & CONTROL ENGINEERING

The fast dynamics of modern technology coupled with changing needs the industry have called for merging of electronics engineering with mechanical
engineering into a new discipline called "Mechatronics". Mechatronics is the synergistic combination of precision mechanical engineering, electronics,
control engineering and computer science. It deals with the integration of mechanical devices, actuators, sensors, electronics, intelligent controllers and
computers. Mechatronics is essential in the design of intelligent products (such as robots); it allows engineers to transform their concepts into reality. During
the forthcoming decades, the use of intelligent products with improved flexibility, performance, reliability and maintainability will be crucial for the economic
vitality of any country. The curriculum and the courses, generally, aim at hands-on experience in mechatronics engineering, with special emphasis on the
engineering design of mechatronic products. Specifically, the graduate program at the department also emphasizes the cutting-edge research in the field.
Postgraduate degrees offered by the department:

1. M.Sc. in Mechatronics Engineering
